Nicole has been with OrthoArizona since 2009 and has enjoyed working alongside the surgeons and staff during this time of growth. She has developed good relations and understanding of what the surgeon’s preferences and protocols are individually. She is certified in ASTYM since 2006 and uses it frequently with appropriate diagnosis. She enjoys working with all age ranges and post-operative diagnosis.
The bulk of her free time is spent within the animal rescue community where she has volunteered with various animal shelters and rescues, as well as fostered at times for them. She has a moderate sized family of cats and dogs as well at home. She does some hiking on the weekends and visits family in the Midwest and East Coast when she is able.
